FS_SETQUOTA(1) AFS Command Reference FS_SETQUOTA(1) NAME
fs_setquota - Sets the quota for the volume containing a file or directory SYNOPSIS
fs setquota [-path <dir/file path>] -max <max quota in kbytes> [-help] fs setq [-p <dir/file path>] -m <max quota> [-h] fs sq [-p <dir/file path>] -m <max quota> [-h] DESCRIPTION
The fs setquota command sets the quota (maximum possible size) of the read/write volume that contains the directory or file named by the -path argument. To set the quota on multiple volumes at the same time, use the fs setvol command. To display a volume's quota, use the fs examine, fs listquota, or fs quota command. CAUTIONS
Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes). OPTIONS
-path <dir/file path> Names the directory or file for which to set the host volume's quota. Partial pathnames are interpreted relative to the current working directory, which is also the default value if this argument is omitted. Specify the read/write path to the file or directory, to avoid the failure that results from attempting to change a read-only volume. By convention, the read/write path is indicated by placing a period before the cell name at the pathname's second level (for example, /afs/.abc.com). For further discussion of the concept of read/write and read-only paths through the filespace, see the fs mkmount reference page. -max <max quota> Sets the maximum amount of file server disk space the volume can occupy. The quota value should be a positive integer followed by an optional suffix: "K" for kibibytes (1024 bytes, the default), "M" for mebibytes (1024 kibibytes), "G" for gibibytes (1024 mebibytes), and "T" for tebibytes (1024 gibibytes). A value of 0 sets an unlimited quota, but the size of the disk partition that houses the volume places an absolute limit on the volume's size. If the -path argument is omitted (to set the quota of the volume housing the current working directory), the -max switch must be included with this argument. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. EXAMPLES
The following command imposes a maximum quota of 3000 kilobytes on the volume that houses the /afs/abc.com/usr/smith directory: % fs setquota -path /afs/abc.com/usr/smith -max 3000 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must belong to the system:administrators group. SEE ALSO

FS_SETVOL(1) AFS Command Reference FS_SETVOL(1) NAME fs_setvol - Set quota and messages for a volume containing a file or directory SYNOPSIS fs setvol [-path <dir/file path>+] [-max <disk space quota in 1K units>] [-offlinemsg <offline message>] [-help] fs setv [-p <dir/file path>+] [-ma <disk space quota in 1K units>] [-o <offline message>] [-h] fs sv [-p <dir/file path>+] [-ma <disk space quota in 1K units>] [-o <offline message>] [-h] DESCRIPTION The fs setvol command sets the quota (maximum possible size) of the read/write volume that contains each directory or file named by the -path argument. To associate a message with the volume which then appears in the output of the fs examine command, include the -offlinemsg argument. To display all of the settings made with this command, use the fs examine command. The fs listquota command reports a fileset's quota, and the fs quota command the percent of quota used. To set quota on one volume at a time, use the fs setquota command. CAUTIONS Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes). OPTIONS -path <dir/file path>+ Names each file or directory for which to set the host volume's quota and offline message. Partial pathnames are interpreted relative to the current working directory, which is also the default value if this argument is omitted. Specify the read/write path to the file or directory, to avoid the failure that results from attempting to change a read-only volume. By convention, the read/write path is indicated by placing a period before the cell name at the pathname's second level (for example, /afs/.abc.com). For further discussion of the concept of read/write and read-only paths through the filespace, see the fs mkmount reference page. -max <disk space quota in 1K units> Sets the maximum amount of file server disk space the volume can occupy. Provide a positive integer to indicate the number of one- kilobyte blocks (1024 is one megabyte). A value of 0 sets an unlimited quota, but the size of the disk partition that houses the volume places an absolute limit on the volume's size. If the -path argument is omitted (so that the command sets the quota of the volume housing the current working directory), the -max switch must be provided. -offlinemsg Associates a message with the volume which then appears in the output of the fs examine command. Its intended use is to explain why the volume is currently offline. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. EXAMPLES The following command imposes a 6500 kilobyte quota on the volumes mounted at the home directories /afs/abc.com/usr/smith and /afs/abc.com/usr/pat: % cd /afs/abc.com/usr % fs setvol -path smith pat -max 6500B<> PRIVILEGE REQUIRED The issuer must belong to the system:administrators group.
